Hey Jahan,
Every Friday I see you mercilessly screwing films. Hardly anything ever seems to impress you. As a critic, you probably feel how "bad" a certain film is. But have you seen a "Ratatouille"? The last scene? A critic, however sarcastic is never above an artist. Even making a film like Krrish is way better than sitting on the couch and reviewing films. It takes balls to make a film, however good or bad, but none to fart out witty and condescending reviews every Friday. |

Hi JB,
that was one witty retort that i quite enjoyed. Many of the critics are eeking out a living by it and a cosy one at that. I have no issues about what or how much critics earn. But are you sure that the critics are or should be paid for writing their personal opinion? I dont think so. All the reviews end with.... skip it, must watch, stay at home etc. guiding readers or TV viewers on what to do with a movie.
A personal opinion should end with I like it or I loathe it but no helpful/demeaning insinuations about the possible torture or heavenly experience.
Btw, its been ages since I watched a movie like "saali..." but if i were to watch such a movie i would go specifically for the content it offers and would not except a "swadesh" from it. Just like when I went to watch Bhoothnath, I expected a good family movie and thats what I got.
P.S. - Do you have a soft copy or a link to "saali..."? it has really been long time since I watched one of those. ;) cheers! |

Hi Jahan.Been here after a long time i guess.Just wanted to tell you that i saw this flick 'Valu' (marathi cinema) n found it really absorbing.There's another one called 'tingya' which i've heard is really good too.dunno if you watch marathi or understand it,but if it does come out with subtitles, i reckon u'd like it. anyways,keep posting dude. |

Just like you, I also really wanted to like U Me aur Hum but somehow it fell below expectations.
As for crudeness, Omkara was full of it yeat its a masterpiece and so is Phoolan Devi's flick. Its strange that when crudeness comes from a Rahul Bose, Vinay, Ranvir or a Rajat Kapoor's mouth in Jhankaar beats, Pyaar Ke Side Effects etc. we consider it as contemporary cinema depicting urban sensibilities but when it comes in UMAH, 123 or a Kya Kool Hain Hum, we start squirming..... point to be noted My Lord!! |

hi jb!
i agree with u on awards' standards here. the examples u gave of, both johnny gaddar and m6fu were quite interesting thrillers and the thrillers never get any awards. but "art" movies like "tbu" r made for awards only. it was meant for festivals and awards which it did not get.
was "tbu" a movie targeted at children? no! no child cud ever sit through it. then, was it made for adults? i think the other movie by aamir khan "tzp" did more beautifully what "tbu" cud not by using children to put accross a point for adults to ponder.
ur zealous effort to defend underdogs like "tbu" or "swades" is appreciable but then the great filmmakers do not always make great movies.
a movie can not work unless it involves its viewers within its ambit which was true in both the movies.
i hope to see u more famous than taran adarsh, khaled mohhamed, subhash jha, rajiv masand when u grow up and also hope that u try to create ur own style and apporach to review a movie that stands u apart. |
